Our Crosschain systems are robust and can adapt to many industrial processes. They are especially well-suited for Bodyshop, Paintshop and vehicle-assembly lines.
Crosschain conveyors are used to move skids from one line to the next. It also allows you to create buffers between lines without affecting rates or flows.
Take your material handling to the next level with the most advanced storage and retrieval systems from GSS Machinery.
An issue with automated material handling systems is poor pallet quality. Although placing rollers closer together can reduce problems with poor pallet qualities, tighter center locations may limit space for chain transfer. IK has developed a chain for 4,000-pound cargoes. It's made of a 3/8 inch plate welded steel frame. This allows for 2-1/2” rollers on 4 1/2 inch centers. This transfer is adjustable without any conveyor disassembly.

The control unit can be managed by a PLC, which can be used to regulate the load transfer at 90 degrees to either of two sides or via a straight line based upon logic/sensor feedback. This allows the entire system to be fully integrated with downstream and upper-stream equipment.
10. Life Cycle Cost: Utilize a comprehensive analysis of life cycle costs on material handling equipment to ensure durability and sustainability. Consider different criteria, including programming, installation, setup, operation, repair and maintenance, reuse value and disposal.
Full pallet transfers can be made using a wedge lift that is powered by an electric cylinder. This arrangement allows for precise vertical travel and stable support in the raised as well as the lowered positions.
Material handling equipment is grouped into four main categories: storage and handling, bulk material, industrial trucks and engineered systems. Let’s take a look at each one.
In an automated material handling system, poor pallet quality could be a problem. Although it is possible to place rollers closer together, poor pallet quality can be a problem. However, tighter roller centers can limit space for chain transfers. IK developed a chain transfer that can carry 4,000-pound loads. It is made from a 3/8" steel plate welded frame, which allows for 2-1/2 inch diameter rollers on 4-1/2” centers. This transfer has a chain take up design that can be adjusted without conveyor disassembly.

System of Belt Conveyors
A belt conveyor, also known as a conveyor belt, is a simple conveyor with few features that is primarily used to transport bulk materials such as sand, salt, and grain. Its simplicity makes it simple to use and one of the most common types of conveyors.
What exactly are mechanical conveyors? Because of their dust-free and clean handling properties, mechanical conveyors are one of the most efficient methods of conveying materials. These conveyors are designed and built specifically for the product to be conveyed and are well suited to a wide range of applications across many industries.
Many industries use conveyor systems, including mining, automotive, agricultural, computer, electronic, food processing, aerospace, pharmaceutical, chemical, bottling and canning, print finishing, and packaging.
